Показать описание
Stony Brook Medicine faculty and students presented research projects and shared their journeys in academic science, an area where women are often under-represented, at Stony Brook’s 12th annual Women in Medicine Research Day.

A leader in creating student and professional diversity, Stony Brook Medicine hosted the event to raise awareness of issues women face in medical, healthcare and research training and employment.

The current #MeToo and #TimesUp movements have increased Stony Brook’s visibility as a longtime advocate for women in science. Although there have been improvements, nationally there are still gender disparities in academic medicine leadership positions (such as division chiefs, medical school deans and tenured faculty.) The Women in Medicine Research Day event brings women together to network and form a community of researchers.
